If I kill artsd how do I restart it? I like all the sounds. It makes a sound when I do anything, except move the mouse or hit a key on the keyboard. I just like it. Maybe they will phase it out later on. I have read where people were moving away from arts I just didn't know why. I only started having this with KDE 3.5 though.
